This thing seems utterly useless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaul, clearly flustered, hurriedly explained, \"This is groundbreaking technology! The synthetic silicon skin it produces can—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Spare me the pitch. Isn't it just a glorified doll?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don't understand. Wait until it's built, and you'll see!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaul, sensing further explanations would be wasted, decided to shift the conversation elsewhere. Explaining anything to these office types was always frustrating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly pulled out his data-slate and posted about the technology on a Mechanicum forum, tagging Moss, Webby, and others for input.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden rolled his eyes but decided to humor the tech-priest. \"Fine, I'll leave it to you. Research away—I'll approve funding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But listen, whatever you make can only be used for scientific purposes. No funny business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, and when it's done, make one for me. I want to see what Golden Age tech looks like in action.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the rigid culture of the Imperium's Adeptus Mechanicus, the research environment on Erth was open and innovation-driven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Eden made sure to maintain oversight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had established a tech-savvy division within the Inquisition to monitor Mechanicus researchers, including Kaul. This ensured no one accidentally unleashed catastrophic technology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaul, unfazed by Eden's presence, enthusiastically browsed the forum, occasionally breaking into a mysterious smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, hey, enough of that,\" Eden interrupted. \"I'm still here. Can we focus? Do any of these STC fragments contain tech we can use on Urth immediately?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaul sheepishly put away the data-slate and forced a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, Governor. Let me explain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaul dared not offend Eden—the man controlled the funding for his future projects, many of which required enormous resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I'll bide my time, Kaul thought. Once I've secured enough resources, I'll drain his coffers dry!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaul moved to another STC fragment and began his presentation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This fragment contains the technology for manufacturing Golden Age infant incubators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These devices provide early knowledge and skill training for infants, fostering creativity and pre-education development...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden's eyes lit up. The incubators could significantly improve the quality of the population and accelerate talent cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the crude fetal incubation tanks of the Mechanicus—prone to locking individuals into limited potential—the incubators promoted natural creativity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden immediately ordered mass production of the incubators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Prioritize deploying them to the Palace District for critical talent training. Later, roll out policies to make them available to every household. This is a long-term investment in Urth's future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaul nodded and continued showcasing the STC fragments:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Basic Educational Devices: Tools for foundational knowledge dissemination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Light Nano-Alloy Technology: Superior to current ceramic steel in strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Advanced Food Processing Lines: Capable of producing high-density energy starch bars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Premium Pigment Coating Technology: Durable and aesthetically superior paints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Automated Space Mining Ships: Drones for vastly improved ore extraction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High-Strength Quick-Dry Concrete: Cheap, fast, and durable for construction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Advanced Weapon Manufacturing Lines: Capable of producing high-performance rifles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden was thrilled. Finally, something practical!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The STC fragments' ability to simplify high-tech manufacturing into accessible systems explained the Mechanicus' obsession with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>STC technology was designed to adapt to local conditions, requiring only raw materials to produce finished goods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such treasures, Eden knew Urth's wealth and power could soar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly allocated the fragments to various Mechanicus research institutes, tasking them with testing and mass production. These advancements would greatly enhance Erth's productivity and military strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the \"silicone effigy\" fragment, he left that to Kaul, who seemed almost emotionally attached to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden then turned his attention to the remnants of the power armor collected from the Warp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He allocated these to Moss and his bio-genetics research team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their task: extract and analyze the genetic material embedded in the armor remnants to reverse-engineer genetic technologies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden pointed to a Thunder Warrior's remains and issued his directive:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is a priority research project. Extract and optimize its genetic engineering data!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Thunder Warriors were precursors to the Space Marines—taller, stronger, and capable of resisting psychic attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, they had significant flaws: unstable genetics, a tendency for violent outbursts, and extremely short lifespans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite their limitations, Eden saw potential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If we can remove their flaws, my guards will become Thunder Warriors 2.0—an unstoppable force.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If optimization proved impossible, Eden planned to use Hope Energy to counteract the flaws, ensuring his elite guards remained reliable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the standard Space Marine legions, Eden envisioned using the Voidborn survivors as genetic templates. Their natural resilience would make them ideal candidates for enhancement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With long-term genetic research in motion, Eden returned to the starport to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, refreshed and ready, Eden reclined once more in his chair, preparing to delve back into the Warp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This time, I'm finding a proper starship!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Check Out My Patreon For +20 Extra Chapters On All My Fanfics!!
